916 E Dolphin Dr Oak Island, NC 28465

THIS IS THE ONE! Make your dream of living by the sea a reality at the Tipsy Turtle! This single owner, never rented, third row island home offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths and ocean views like a second row home, but at third row prices. In a highly desirable location just a few blocks from oceanfront dining, the pier, public beach access, the 9th St. scenic walkover and canal overlook, and the new bridge for easy access on and off the island. Imagine all the memories you'll make on the trex deck porches taking in the incredible ocean views on the front and tranquil marsh views in the rear. We sat in the warm morning sun on the porch, while talking about all the things they love about this home, watching a pod of dolphins jumping and playing in the surf. Local Lore says the home across the street was moved from the oceanfront to the second row. The owners of that property do actually still own the two and half lots on the beachfront, preserving the natural habitat and offering an ample view. Inside features include hardwood and tile flooring, updated baths and kitchen with stainless steel appliances and tiled backsplash in 2017. The owner's bedroom has views of the ocean from the windows as does the front guest bedroom. Roof and HVAC system are less than 5 years old. Huge ground level storage area for all your beach supplies, fishing gear, and kayaks has a dehumidifier to protect your things. There is an abundance of parking in the paved driveway and sizable 12'8'' under house clearance for potential to store your center console boat, offering more protection from the outdoor elements. After spending time on the beach, head home and jump into the outdoor shower to wash off the salt and sand. Mature landscaping surrounding the home provides some privacy and shade and there is even room in the rear to potentially add a pool. This comfortable ocean view home will offer you the coastal lifestyle you desire. Listed neighborhood amenities are in abundance on Oak Island!
